Programs of Work
IFA’s largest body of work – adult vaccination – contributes to V4L’s vision of a world of healthy older people whose rights to safe and appropriate vaccines are protected and respected through programs that hold high the principles of prevention, access, and equity.
Since its inception, the IFA V4L has become a global leader in evidence to action adult vaccination policy. With evidence spanning across multiple countries and regions, the V4L program has established a robust knowledge base on key topics such as messaging and communication in adult vaccination, the inclusion of adult vaccination in national immunization programs and National Immunization Technical Advisory Group (NITAG) recommendations, immunization policy in long-term care settings, equity in adult vaccination, and vaccine confidence.
